Hormesis Mechanisms

Hormesis Mechanisms is a theoretical construct in toxicology and radiation biology that identifies and characterizes the specific biochemical and cellular pathways through which low-dose radiation induces beneficial adaptive responses, distinguishing it from general stress response models by its emphasis on biphasic dose-response relationships and stimulation of repair and defense systems.
